FAQ
What types of equipment is this power cord compatible with?
This AddOn power cord with C20 male to C19 female connectors is designed for high-power business IT equipment. It's commonly used to connect power distribution units (PDUs) to servers, network switches, UPS systems, and other enterprise-grade devices that require C19 inlet connections. The 250V/20A rating makes it suitable for equipment with substantial power requirements in data center and server room environments.
What does the P-Lock feature provide?
The P-Lock feature is a secure locking mechanism on the connectors that prevents accidental disconnection. This is particularly valuable in environments with vibration, movement, or frequent cable handling, such as server racks and data centers. By ensuring the connectors remain firmly mated, P-Lock reduces the risk of power interruptions that could lead to equipment downtime or data loss.
How does the 12 AWG gauge affect performance?
The 12 AWG (American Wire Gauge) specification indicates a thicker conductor that offers lower electrical resistance compared to thinner gauges. This results in more efficient power transmission with reduced voltage drop over the cable's 5-foot length. For high-current applications up to 20 amps, the 12 AWG gauge ensures the cord can deliver full power without excessive heating or energy loss, making it suitable for demanding industrial and IT applications.
What are the advantages of the red PVC SJT jacket?
The red Service Junior Thermoplastic (SJT) jacket provides multiple practical benefits. The red color allows for easy visual identification in complex cable management scenarios, helping technicians distinguish power cables from data cables. The PVC SJT construction offers durability with resistance to abrasion, oils, chemicals, and moisture, making it suitable for both indoor and industrial environments. This jacket maintains flexibility across a range of temperatures while protecting the internal conductors.
Is this power cord suitable for rack-mounted installations?
Yes, this power cord is well-suited for rack-mounted installations. The 5-foot length provides adequate reach for connecting equipment within standard server racks while minimizing excess cable that can impede airflow and create management challenges. The P-Lock feature is particularly valuable in rack environments where vibration from cooling fans or equipment movement might otherwise cause connectors to work loose over time.
